Head

The Slik AF1100E Trigger Action Ball Head is considered by Slik to be the Digital Little Brother of the enormously successful AF- 2100 head. The Slik AF1100E uses a patented design that allows the trigger handle to release tension on the ball when it is squeezed and lock the ball head in any position by simply releasing the trigger handle. This innovative action allows the camera to be pointed in almost any direction with ease, making a tripod-mounted camera feel like more of an extension of the body. It has an all-metal quick release system with an easy-to-use rectangular plate that sits in a shoe that can rotate 360° and lock facing in any direction. A top-mounted bubble level makes levelling the camera quick and easy.

Legs

The latest metal, SLIK’s exclusive A.M.T. super titanium alloy legs make the PRO 330 DX lighter weight than similar tripods, but with more rigidity for a more secure hold on your camera. It folds down small to just 23.5 inches and weighs just 3.5 pounds making this tripod great for traveling.

The emphasis on the PRO 300 DX is ease of use. Any tripod should be easy to use, so that that you spend more time concentrating on your subject, and enjoying your photography, than you do stressing about and fussing with your equipment. The lightest of the PRO series, the PRO 330 DX makes setting up easy with secure, yet fast speed release leg locks, gearless center column for quick height adjustments, and 3 position adjustable angle legs for easy set up on uneven ground or steps. This adjustable angle feature can also be used to lower the camera for extremely low angle or macro photography out in the field.

Despite it’s featherweight and ease of use, the PRO 330 DX can hold nearly 8 ponds of camera and lens. Perfect for the photographer with a digital camera or lightweight SLR camera and lens. Plus the head is removable, so that a variety of other heads, like one of the SLIK ball heads, can be used in place of the included all-metal 3-way pan head with quick release.

With it’s application of lightweight super alloy, the SLIK PRO 330 DX presents a economical alternative to the more expensive carbon fiber tripods, allowing you to travel light, on any budget.
